In other two-wheeled transportation news, you can get yourself an electric motorbike with a top speed of 60 mph, 32 horsepower and 62 ft lbs of torque for less than $10,000. The bike can be shipped anywhere in the U.S. for a mere $500, so don't worry if you don't have a dealer nearby. Deliveries will begin in early May.
The bike should have plenty of acceleration, and it's highway ready (despite it's low top speed.) The battery will take you 60 miles on a charge but a recharge will only take four hours. That's the beauty of these low-power bike batteries...they don't have a lot to push, so they can be a lot more useful.
So next time you complain that there are no EVs available for cheap, just remember you're the priss holding out for one that has a roof and four wheels.
